A connector that is easy to manufacture, does not cause short molds, does not cause flux to adhere to the contact part of the terminals, and enables for miniaturization and high reliability. A connector body and a plurality of terminals attached to the connector body are provided; the connector main body is a member integrated with the terminals by insert molding, and includes a protruding part extending in the longitudinal direction thereof that retains the terminals, and a flange protruding outward in the width direction from a side surface of the mounting surface side end of the connector main body. The terminal includes a standing part in which a surface is exposed on a side surface of the protruding part, and a tail part connected to the mounting surface side end of the standing part via a curved connecting part, extending outward in the width direction from the flange, and a tail part soldered to a substrate. The flange includes a notch formed at a location corresponding to each terminal, and the tail part, the curved connecting part, and at least a part of the surface of the standing part are exposed in the notch.
